Angelica, Angelina or plain old Angela?

What do you think? I think our favourite is Anglica, though I find myself warming more to Angela and I think it could be pretty and fresh? I wonder if Angela is still too outdated at the moment?

I like Angela best - pretty, classy.

I would say Angela, I don't think it's too dated but I do immediately think Merkel for a second!

Angelica and Angelina ( ballerina ) seem quite young to me, I can imagine someone up to say 25 with the name but beyond that it's hard.

There's also Angeline (or Angelene) but I think Angela is the nicest.

Angelique?

Evangeline or Angelina, nn Eva or Lina or Angie etc
lots of potential.
Angela is nice if you don't pronounce it like Anjerlurh..

Second thoughts, think I prefer Angela or Evangeline as it's more timeless

Angelique pronounced how, though? The French way will have an "onj" not an "anj" sound.

I like Angela
